Ah yes I was forgetting about the cargo side of KA.
Mick Jagger Surely you are not considering joining as a F/O?? Are things really that bad in EK?? Presumably you are already Airbus rated as well as B777?
If you are going for the mainline as against cargo then you will spend your life flying in and out of mainline China which is not a lot of fun. I have only flown into Beijing which is OK but I can imagine some of the places that KA go to must be exciting!!
